[She didn't expect the trip to her room to be any different than normal but, after reading the information Agito compiled and other such accounts, she didn't exactly feel entirely at ease. Occasionally she paused to glance over a shoulder but, when nothing was there, she heaved a sigh and started up the stairwell leading to the fifteenth floor.]

Maybe I'm just being paranoid..

You should be. These halls are dangerous.

[The smooth, Southern accent came from the shadows before Jasper stepped forward into the light, eyes wandering over Rinali. He'd been doing a relatively good job of keeping himself hidden from the Castle's residents, coming out then only when he wanted to feed, though after reading all of the ruckus he'd caused, he was more than willing to follow James' lead and just toy with people now.]

[Turns but, since she had already heard his voice, she had a decent idea of who this might have been. Taking a few steps back before she turned to face him, she kept a calm face]

Paradisa is a dangerous place in general, isn't it?

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

[Jasper of course, didn't know about many of the rumors being said or the accurate description of his appearance, so he wouldn't have suspected her to know who he was. He took a step closer.]

Haven't been here long enough to know but I'm assumin' it's not the most family friendly of places.

[One step back and her calm mask was starting to slip a little. She could use her Innocence if the time called for it but, for now, she was attempting to learn what she could about him. If she talked to him, maybe she could find out why he was doing these things-]

It isn't always peaceful but, then again, no place ever is.

[He could feel her nervousness with his gift, and really it just amused him. He moved closer.]

Are you alright? You look scared.

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

[Oh, hello wall.]

I'm fine, but I should probably get back to my room.

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

[He moved closer, momentarily blocking her route.]

That might be wise. There might be monsters about. [He chuckled softly.] You know all that talk about those evil vampires running around ...

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

[Furrows her brows, taking another step back in the opposite direction]

You're one of them, aren't you?

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

I might be.

[He gives her a charming smile, stepping after her, unconcerned really if she ran. He could catch her easily.]

Are you afraid?

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

Jasper.

[For every step he takes forward, that'll be her taking one more back, She's conveniently decides not to answer his question]

That's your name, isn't it?

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

[Inwardly, he's surprised she knows his name. He says nothing about his surprise though.]

And why might you think that's my name?

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

A hunch.

[She, of course, doesn't note the surprise]

People are worried about you.

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

They should worry about themselves. It's more helpful for their survival.

[He smirked then, drawing closer once more, a little faster than expected.]

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

Right now, they care about your survival.

[Nobody had mentioned the exact extent of his speed and, as such, she nearly stumbles]

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

Fools, all of them.

[He smirked down at her as she nearly stumbled.]

Lose your balance?

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't take their feelings so lightly!

[Regaining her footing she doesn't budge from her spot]

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

[In the blink of an eye he moved forward swiftly and tried to press her against the wall.]

You're not in a position to tell me what I should and shouldn't do.

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

[It's successful but she definitely isn't taking this quietly. she's leaning her face away]

No, I'm not. But with so many people telling you the same thing, could they really be wrong?

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

I think it's about time you shut your mouth.

[He didn't need her face towards him of course. Instead he just leaned in close to her neck.]

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

Please, listen to me! You're going to regret doing this!

[It wasn't a threat, it was a plea. She pushes against him with all of her might but, naturally, doesn't carry the strength needed to budge him]

[was just heading back to his room after refilling his thermos when he comes across Hot Chocolate Girl and That Vampire Guy in a compromising situation. what... the fuck. processes this for a moment...]

[disassociating.livejournal.com]

Get away from her, fucktard.

[oh-hale-jasper.livejournal.com]

I'm going to regret it?

[He laughed, shaking his head until he heard the other male's approach. His head whipped around and his red eyes focused on him.]

Mm, and I suppose you're going to stop me?

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

Agito!

[follows Jasper's gaze to him]

[disassociating.livejournal.com]

Maybe. [no. B( raises a hand slightly at Rinali in greeting.]

Hot Chocolate Girl.
